Student Protests Against Edi Rama Reach Day 168 as New National Demonstration Takes Place in Tirana
 |
Student protests against the Albanian government and Prime Minister Edi Rama but also opposition leader Sali Berisha are continuing, with the movement reaching its 168th consecutive day on Saturday, November 14.
Students have announced another nationwide demonstration in Tirana, scheduled to begin at 14:00 in front of the Ministry of Education.
The latest rally is part of a new protest strategy adopted by the organizers, who have decided to hold two national demonstrations every week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, in an effort to maintain pressure on the government.
The decision was announced after more than 150 days of continuous mobilization, as students and their supporters seek to keep their demands at the centre of public debate.
The movement's continuation into its 168th day reflects the organizers' determination to sustain the demonstrations and bring their concerns before the government.
Saturday's gathering in the Albanian capital is expected to mark another chapter in the ongoing student-led protests against Edi Rama's government and the opposition leaded by Sali Berisha.
